Interlayer Engineering of Preintercalated Layered Oxides as Cathode for Emerging Multivalent Metal-ion Batteries: Zinc and Beyond

Xun Zhao et al.

Summary: Typical layered structures with large capacity, such as alpha-, delta-V2O5, delta-MnO2, and alpha-MoO3, have poor electrical conductivity and suffer from severe structural deterioration and sluggish diffusion kinetics during charging/discharging. Interlayer engineering of preintercalation strategies has offered effective solutions to stabilize these structures. Various substances like water molecules, alkali cations, transition metal cations, and organic molecules have been proven to enhance diffusion kinetics and stability, especially in emerging multivalent metal-ion batteries like rechargeable aqueous zinc ion batteries. This review clarifies the crystal structures, preparation methods, characterization techniques, mechanistic insights, and applications of preintercalated layered oxides in multivalent metal-ion batteries.
